The Sikh Coalition, in partnership with the Simon Wiesenthal Center Museum of Tolerance, is excited to announce the display of the groundbreaking Sikh Project photography exhibition at the Museum of Tolerance in Los Angeles. The Sikh Project, a collaboration with the talented British photographers Amit and Naroop, captures the beauty of the Sikh faith and the depth of the Sikh American experience. Launched to critical acclaim in 2016, this display of the exhibition will include 28 portraits of Sikh men and women that embody the triumphs, challenges, and diversity of the Sikh community in the United States.
The Museum of Tolerance will be hosting the Sikh Project photography exhibition from September 11th-November 3rd in an effort to honor its commitment to fostering tolerance and understanding through community involvement, educational outreach, and social action. Events like these are imperative to raising the Sikh profile, leading to greater awareness and knowledge about Sikhs and also ensuring Sikhs have a space to share their own narrative.
